    2016 is really a good year for documentaries!

    The documentary is gripping, and the piano soundtrack is brilliant. The film deliberately downplays the introduction of the perpetrators, and describes the entire incident from the perspective of the victims. Reconstructing the scene with animation, very clever expression. 4.5-star recommendation Note: Texas is a sturdy folklore. Even Ang Lee's new film sets the protagonist and background scenes in...

    The form is novel and unique, ignoring the gunman seems to be the originality of this film, just like the point of view in the film is not the person, but the whole society, but the point of view is too subtle, but it just passed by and the ending just moved to another level, and it lost a little...

    A mash-up of animated renditions, live-action interviews, and historical film is a constant reminder of the fragility of reality and the fragmentation of individual experiences. It feels like a wonderful way to "tell the blind about rainbows", but with a childhood photo and two sentences "Monsters are among us." time/I forgive him" is an understatement to ignore the shooter is unacceptable. He had his own experience that caused this damage, and without him, the memory of this tragedy would be...

    Fully first-person perspective (police, rescuers, victims and witnesses). The whole film was shot with a combination of real old images, animations, and videos of the participants' status quo, using virtual techniques to reproduce the sense of the scene more than 50 years ago. The autopsy of the gunman Charles Whitman found that he had a brain tumor, which may have been the source of his violent tendencies in those...

    No news from Auschwitz

    News will eventually become a thing of the past. No matter how appalling, how sinful, and how irritating, it will eventually pass. It will pass until people’s memories of this matter become vague, until the next generation of people don’t remember these things happened, and until a long time later,...

Tower quotes

  • John Fox: I remember looking at the Tower, of course, a lot. And from the Main Mall you can see there's a biblical line from the Bible. "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." I've thought about it. One of the truths I learned... Is that there are monsters that walk among us. There are people out there that think unthinkable thoughts and then do unthinkable things.

  • Walter Cronkite: The horror of these, the sick among us, must be found in the horror of our hyper-civilization. A strange pandering to violence, a disrespect for life, fostered in part by governments which, in pursuit of the doctrine of self-defense, teach their youth to kill and to maim. A society in which the most popular newspaper cartoon strips, television programs, and movies are those that can invent new means of perpetrating bodily harm. A people who somehow can remain silent while their own civilization seems to crumble under the force of the caveman's philosophy - that might makes right. It seems likely that Charles Joseph Whitman's crime was society's crime.
